I get that, still stupid. Steven A doesn't get paid to tell jokes, he was there to speak on the deal and did nothing. Even his semi point about the two picks from LA would be meaningless since they would be good, he forgot to mention that Memphis's draft picks would then be ENHANCED. Again, analyze the damn deal.
He never even mentioned Critt or Marc Gasol, probably cuz he knew nothing about them. The bottom line of any trade is youth in return + picks.
Orlando just traded Dwight, you all see how much young talent is on that squad right now? They have 4 blue chip prospects, 2-3 nice young pieces behind that, and 2-3 vets they can move, plus they'll likely get another top 5 pick in next year's draft. Most of that came from trading Dwight. That's how you build.
Same thing in the NFL when you trade a Hershel Walker for Draft picks, same thing in MLB where you trade a player for 3-4 prospects and wait 3 years for them to grow.
All Steven did was say Kwame 19 times. That's ****** stupid. I was on here all day that day tellin people that Memphis just set themselves up real nice and made a great deal, even tho we would be considered the "winners" of the deal, Memphis was in great shape. Guess what, they are in great shape now. And if they would have Love and Harden, they'd be even better, in fact, quite possibly have a title by now. (alternate universe of course)
